Proverbs 16:4-9

⁴Jehovah hath made everything for its own end; Yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.

⁵Every one that is proud in heart is an abomination to Jehovah: Though hand join in hand, he shall not be unpunished.

⁶By mercy and truth iniquity is atoned for; And by the fear of Jehovah men depart from evil.

⁷When a man’s ways please Jehovah, He maketh even his enemies to be at peace with him.

⁸Better is a little, with righteousness, Than great revenues with injustice.

⁹A man’s heart deviseth his way; But Jehovah directeth his steps.
